In power supply, be used for obtaining about a kind of common methods of the collateral information of power supply output and depend on the predictable relationship between the voltage at armature winding place and the state of the output of power supply.The where the shoe pinches of the method is can accurately not learn the relation between the voltage at armature winding place and the voltage of the output of power supply.Although the voltage on armature winding is proportional with the output voltage of power supply approx, but many non-ideal effects cause output voltage to be independent of voltage on armature winding and change.
As will be discussed, disclose a kind of instruction according to the present invention provide the output to power supply fine adjustment through improving one's methods and installing.In one example, the flyback power supply according to instruction of the present invention has been discussed, it enables using single energy conveying element that the fine adjustment of the output of the flyback power supply of electric current isolation is provided between the input of power supply and output.
In order to illustrate, Fig. 1 shows the schematic diagram of an example of dc-dc power supply 100 in general manner, and dc-dc power supply 100 receives input voltage V iN102 to produce output voltage V at load 154 places o156 and output current I o152.In the example of ac-dc power supply, dc input voltage V iN102 can be through rectification and through the ac of filtering input voltage.Input voltage V iN102 is positive with respect to input circuit (input return) 108.Output voltage V obe positive with respect to output loop (outputreturn) 150.
The example power supply 100 of Fig. 1 is the flyback converters through regulating.As illustrated in the example shown, the flyback converter of power supply 100 comprises energy conveying element L1132, and it is the coupling inductor with three windings.Energy conveying element L1132 is sometimes referred to as transformer, because the voltage on its winding is relevant with the number of turn on each winding.Energy conveying element L1132 comprises having N pthe input winding 128 of circle, there is N sthe output winding 130 of circle and there is N bthe biasing winding 126 of circle.
In the example shown, between the circuit in circuit and the power supply output of energy conveying element L1132 in the input of power supply, provide electric current isolation.The dc voltage, being applied between input circuit 108 and output loop 150 can not be created in dc electric current mobile between input circuit 108 and output loop 150.It is the electric insulation between winding that the isolation barrier of electric current isolation is provided.Input winding 128 and biasing winding 126 are in the primary side of isolation barrier.Output winding 130 is on the outlet side of isolation barrier.
As shown shown in example, the switch S 1106 in the primary side of isolation barrier is to disconnecting in the driving signal 114 from primary control circuit 116 and closed.In one example, switch S 1106 can be mos field effect transistor (MOSFET).In another example, switch S 1 106 can be bipolar junction transistor (BJT).In another example, switch S 1106 can be insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) or other suitable switch.
In one example, primary control circuit 116 generates and drives signal 114 in response to the signal at control terminal 160 places, carrys out the switching of control switch S1 106.Primary control circuit 116 can also be to the electric current I in indicator cock S 1106 dthe current sensing signal 112 of 104 value responds.Any method in some methods of the electric current in the sense switch of implementing in the art can provide current sensing signal 112.
In one example, 116 disconnections of primary control circuit and Closing Switch S1 106 are to be adjusted to desirable value by the output of power supply 100.Output can be the combination of voltage, electric current or voltage and electric current.The example power supply 100 of Fig. 1 has provided the output voltage V through regulating at load 154 places o156.Load 154 receives output current I o152.
The switch disconnecting can not conduction current.Closed switch can conduction current.In the time that switch S 1 106 is closed, primary current I p158 enter the armature winding 128 of coupling inductor L1132, store the energy in the magnetic field of coupling inductor L1132.In the time that switch S 1 106 is closed, in output winding 130 and biasing winding 126, there is not electric current.In the time that switch S 1 106 is closed, the switch element 138 that is coupled to the diode 118 of biasing winding 126 and is coupled to output winding 130 stops the electric current in corresponding windings.
In the time that switch S 1106 disconnects, electric current I s134 can flow in output winding 130, and electric current I b120 can flow in biasing winding 126.After switch S 1106 disconnects, all or part energy being stored in coupling inductor L1132 can be released by winding 126 and 130.When, switch S 1106 is closed by primary current I p158 energy that are stored in winding 128 are sent to received current I from winding 126 and winding 130 respectively in the time that S1106 disconnects b120 and electric current I s134 circuit.Electric current I s134 and I b120 respectively to capacitor C1148 and C2122 charging, to produce corresponding voltage V o156 and V c124.In the example of Fig. 1, capacitor C1 148 and C2122 have enough electric capacity to make voltage V o156 and V c124 are essentially dc voltage.In the example of Fig. 1, electric current I b120 forward bias rectifiers 118 are to charge to capacitor C2122.In the example of Fig. 1, as rectifier 118 conduction current I b, there is forward voltage V at 120 o'clock f164.
In the example shown, voltage V b162 with voltage V srelation between 136 is recently determined by the number of turn on each winding 126 and 130.,
V B V S = N B N S - - - ( 1 )
With voltage V b162 and voltage V sfixed relationship between 136 forms contrast, the electric current I in each winding 126 and 130 b120 and I s134 is irrelevant with the number of turn of winding.But, electric current I b120 and I s134 are determined by the character of the circuit at each winding place respectively.That is, in the time that switch S 1106 disconnects, electric current I b120 and I s134 can be any ratio.Arbitrary winding can have zero current in any time in the time that switch S 1106 disconnects.In the time that switch S 1106 disconnects, electric current I b120 and I s134 are subject to the quantitative limitation of remaining energy in coupling inductor, but each electric current can be got any value that is no more than this restriction.Therefore,, according to instruction of the present invention, can come as required institute's stored energy to be directed to arbitrary winding by utilizing control circuit to locate to force electric current at one of winding.
As illustrated in the example depicted in fig. 1, power supply 100 comprises the secondary control circuit 146 according to instruction of the present invention, and its console switch element 138 is to distribute (portion) from coupling inductor 132 to output winding 130 and the transmission of the energy of biasing winding 126.In example, secondary control circuit 146 receives the voltage V at winding 130 places s136 as signal 140 and reception output voltage V o156 as signal 144.In example, the insignificant electric current of signal 140 and 144 conduction.According to instruction of the present invention, secondary control circuit 146 produces the driving signal 142 of diverter switch element 138, to make to represent output voltage V o156 actual value and output voltage V othe energy of the difference between 156 desired value shifts (divert) to biasing winding 126 from output winding 130.Output voltage V o156 desired value is specified for particular power source.The designer of power supply arranges the output voltage of expectation conventionally according to the reference voltage of setting up in secondary control circuit 146, as will be discussed in this is open after a while.Represent output voltage V o156 actual value and output voltage V othe energy of the difference between 156 desired value can be considered to error signal.
The energy that is transferred to biasing winding 126 receives the signal as control switch S 1106 by primary control circuit 116, to make output voltage V o156 are adjusted to desired value., secondary control circuit 146 will represent output voltage V othe energy of the error between 156 actual value and desired value is transferred to biasing winding 126.The electric current I of primary control circuit 116 to the information that comprises error signal b120 respond.Primary control circuit 116 diverter switch S 1106 are with by output voltage V o156 are adjusted to desired value, reduce thus the value of error signal.
That illustrate as in the example of Figure 1 and in the disclosure after a while by describe in detail, the voltage V on capacitor C2122 c124 are regulated by primary control circuit 116.Voltage and turn ratio are selected by designer, to make only just to have electric current in biasing winding 126 in the time that biasing winding 126 is transferred to energy in switch element 138 operations.,
V C + V F > N B N S V O - - - ( 2 )
By primary current I p158 sub-fractions that are stored in the energy in armature winding 128 can not be sent to other winding, and this is because the magnetic coupling between armature winding 128 and other winding of coupling inductor imperfect.In the example power supply 100 of Fig. 1, the energy that can not be sent to other winding is received by clamper (clamp) circuit 110, and the voltage that clamp circuit 110 limits armature winding 128 two ends is not damaged by excessive voltage with protection switch S1106.
Fig. 2 A and Fig. 2 B usually show the function equivalent example that can be used in the switch element 138 in the example power supply 100 of Fig. 1 according to instruction of the present invention.As will be discussed, switch element 138 is coupled to be switched to has the effective impedance that equals the first impedance or the second impedance between terminal 240 and 244, wherein, and the first and second impedance differences.In one example, the first impedance between terminal 240 and 244 and the second impedance are all non-vanishing.In one example, impedance can be nonlinear.
In order to describe, Fig. 2 A shows by driving signal 142 to control with in position 1 or the single-pole double-throw switch (SPDT) S of position 2 a205.Work as switch S a205 in the time of position 1, and the electric current transmitting between the terminal 240 of switch element 138 and terminal 244 must pass through impedance Z 1210.Work as switch S ain the time of position 2, the electric current transmitting between terminal 240 and terminal 244 must pass through impedance Z 2220.Usually, impedance Z 1210 and Z2220 can be any values including zero-sum infinity, as long as impedance Z 1210 is different with Z2220.In the example shown, the impedance between terminal 240 and the terminal 244 of switch element 138 must be different for the high value and the low value that drive signal 142.
Fig. 2 B illustrates and comprises by driving signal 142 to control with the single-pole single-throw switch (SPST) S in disconnection or closure state b230 example switch element 138.Fig. 2 B also comprises impedance Z 3250 and Z4255.Main difference between the configuration of Fig. 2 A and Fig. 2 B is that the impedance Z 3250 between terminal 240 and terminal 244 is not switched in the configuration of Fig. 2 B., work as switch S b230 disconnect and work as switch S bwhen closed, impedance Z 3250 is all between terminal 240 and terminal 244.Work as switch S b230 when disconnect, and all electric currents that transmit between the terminal 240 of switch element 138 and terminal 244 all must be through impedance Z 3250.Work as switch S bwhen closed, a part for the electric current that can transmit through impedance Z 3250 and between terminal 240 and 244 in a part for the electric current transmitting between terminal 240 and terminal 244 can be passed through impedance Z 4255.Usually, except Z3250 can not be zero and Z4255 can not be for infinity, impedance Z 3250 and Z4255 can be any value, and they needn't be different value.
In one example, any impedance Z 1210, Z2220, Z3250 and the Z4255 in Fig. 2 A and Fig. 2 B can be nonlinear., the voltage at impedance two ends may not be directly proportional to the electric current of the impedance of flowing through.For example, pn junction diode can be considered to have nonlinear impedance.Schottky (Schottky) diode also can be considered to have nonlinear impedance.
Usually, switch element 138 can be two-way or unidirectional.Bilateral switching element allows conduction current in either direction.Unidirectional switch elements only allows conduction current in one direction.In the time that impedance Z 1210, Z2220, Z3250 and Z4255 comprise diode, the switch element of Fig. 2 A and Fig. 2 B can be unidirectional.
Fig. 3 illustrates in greater detail the example primary control circuit 116 in the example power supply 100 that can be used in Fig. 1.As shown in the figure, example primary control circuit 116 comprises the oscillator 310 that is coupled to logic and driver circuitry 305, and logic and driver circuitry 305 is coupled to shunt regulator (shuntregulator) 315.In the example shown, primary control circuit 116 receives the energy of automatic biasing winding 126 at control terminal 160 places.The energy that carrys out automatic biasing winding 126 provides electric energy to carry out operation control circuit 116.The energy that carrys out automatic biasing winding 126 also provides and output voltage V othe relevant information of difference between 156 actual value and desired value.That is, according to instruction of the present invention, the electric current I in biasing winding 126 b120 comprise supply current and the error signal for control circuit 116.
As shown in example, there is value I dDcurrent source 355 represent the supply current that operation of primary control circuit 116 is required, and can comprise the electric current that console switch S1106 is required.In one example, primary control circuit 116 can be included in monolithic integrated circuit.In another example, integrated circuit can comprise primary control circuit 116, switch S 1114 and current sensing signal 112.The example integrated circuit being included in power supply 100 can be California, one of the TOPSwitch of the Power Integrations company of San Jose or DPA-Switch series of products.
Continue the example shown in Fig. 3, primary control circuit 116 comprises shunt regulator 315, and it is coupled the control voltage V on capacitor C2122 c124 are adjusted to desired value.In the operation of power supply 100, the energy that guides to biasing winding 126 is greater than to primary control circuit 126 provides electric energy required amount.Exceed the energy of amount needing to primary control circuit 116 power supply stations by shunt regulator 315 with branch current I sH320 form dissipates.
When controlling voltage V c124 when be conditioned, branch current I sHthe 320th, carry out the electric current I of automatic biasing winding 126 b120 mean value with from the electric current I of current source 355 dDbetween poor.By this way, branch current I sH320 represent to exceed the energy of transferring to biasing winding 126 that the required amount of electric energy is provided to primary control circuit 116.Due to the error that is directed to the energy of overage of biasing winding 126 and represents between actual value and the desired value of output, therefore, branch current I sHerror between 320 actual value and the desired values that represent to export.Therefore, branch current I sHthe 320th, error current, and electric current I in winding 126 b120 mean value is error current I sH320 with supply current I dD355 sums.
